--> Russ plays nothing like Steve Young did <--
Both powerfully built, both pocess calm CEO like demeanor's, and both are very similar statistically. But they are not alike. Okay, if you say so. And to clarify more Russ is more a hybrid of Steve & Fran skillset wise. If those 2 players could have a baby.
Statistically here are RW & SY best season's as pros. I won't say which is which.
68.1% -- 4024 yds -- 34 TDs -- 8 INTs -- 8.3 YPA -- 110.1 Passer Rating --|-- 553 yds rushing -- 1 rushing TD
70.3% -- 3969 yds -- 35 TDs -- 10 INTs -- 8.6 YPA -- 112.8 Passer Rating --||-- 293 yds rushing -- 7 rushing TDs
The different era argument goes out the window, when you see The O-Line play disparity, and OC quality difference. It balances things out.

Peep the stats Colin throws up comparing Russ & Steve.

2016

Russell from the pocket only statistics in 2016
(1st) 118.6 Passer Rating -- 72.8% -- 8.75 YPA -- 31 TDS (only threw 3 TDs outside of the pocket in 2016).
Explain please. I need a good laugh. How does a flawed pocket passer put up these kind of numbers from the pocket (Better #s than all of the elite pocket passers in the NFL) behind a terrible O-Line & a crappy OC?
2017 4th QTR
67.63% -- 18 TDs -- 1 INT -- 134.1 Passer Rating -- 9.4 YPA -- Sacked???..... 3 Times. That is it... just 3 times.
Does this describe a player that is flawed from the pocket to any of you? Running into sacks? Can't see?
1st-3rd qtr he was sacked 39 times. Just look at that disparity and think long and hard about what changed in the 4th qtr.
Russell's ability from the pocket isn't the problem. Bad gameplanning/philosophy is the problem. RW has been bailing out their failed staff for years.
Please explain how a flawed pocket passer puts up those kind of numbers in the 4th qtr of games when defenses are pinning their earsback to stop him because they do not have to defend the run, and is the 2nd highest rated passer of ALL-TIME for his career despite having one of the worst OC's & O-Lines in the NFL his entire career.
